Welcome
to our second official
growing season! We
are excited to provide
our community with
the best organically/biodynamically
grown produce and cut
flowers. We are committed
to the re-connection
of people with the
bio-region they live
in.
Our
CSA (Community Supported
Agriculture) encourages
locals to explore the
food that can be grown
in the area, and passive
season extending practices
that bring us treats
such as tomatoes and
peppers. At Copper
Moose, we believe the
farm is a living organism,
treating it with the
utmost respect and
care.
The
Gardens:
We
are currently growing
on about 1 acre, but
have plenty of room to
expand. During the summer
months we grow salad
mixes, carrots, beets,
broccoli, potatoes, leeks,
garlic, onions, scallions,
turnips, radishes, arugula,
tatsoi, mizuna, kale,
chard, cabbage, Chinese
cabbage, asparagus, thyme,
cilantro, dill, oregano,
terragon, chives, mint,
summer squash, and cut
flowers in our outside
growing beds. Meanwhile,
the greenhouse produces
heirloom tomatoes, peppers,
melons, cucumbers, eggplant,
and basil. During the
winter months, all of
our growing moves inside
our 2400 sq ft passive
solar greenhouse (click
here for more info).
Currently we do not sell
produce during the winter
months, but we are able
to produce enough fantastic
vegetables to keep our
families well fed during
ski season.
We
use crop rotation,
cover crops, compost,
organic soil amendments
and Biodynamic methods
and preparations to
ensure that our land
is and will remain
the most fertile and
productive for generations
to come. We support
healthy populations
of insects, birds,
and animals that maintain
a balanced ecosystem
on our farm. Click

At Copper Moose Farm
we believe it starts
and ends with the soil,
so we pay the utmost
care and attention
to the life and health
of our soil.
